PREFACE 


In"  the  compilation  of  this  work  the  endeavour  has  been  to 
produce  in  a  compact  volume  that  may  be  conveniently  used  by 
students,  travellers,  and  business  men,  a  complete  and  accurate 
vocabulary  of  the  Spanish  language. 

With  this  end  in  view,  and  for  the  purpose  of  including  all 
the  modern  words  with  which  the  language  has  been  enriched 
through  a  general  advancement  in  human  knowledge  and  activ- 
ity, the  thirteenth  edition  (1899)  of  the  Dictionary  of  the  Koyal 
Spanish  Academy — which  is  the  latest  and  highest  authority  in 
Spanish  lexicography — has  been  adopted  as  a  ground-work,  and 
every  word,  every  acceptation,  every  idiom  contained  in  that 
dictionary,  with  the  exception  of  those  that  have  become  archaic, 
is  defined  in  this  volume. 

Furthermore,  many  words  and  acceptations  have  been  added, 
which,  while  not  purely  Castilian,  are  in  general  use  in  Spanish- 
American  countries  and  in  the  Philippine  Islands,  and  also  a 
great  number  of  technical  terms  that  are  frequently  used  in 
commercial  intercourse  between  Spanish-  and  English-speaking 
countries.  Indeed,  this  rapidly  increasing  intercourse,  and  the 
ties  that  now  bind  to  the  United  States  several  million  people 
whose  vernacular  is  the  Spanish  language,  have  been  kept 
steadily  in  view  during  the  preparation  of  the  work,  which  is  in- 
tended to  be  as  helpful  to  the  American  or  English  student  of 
Spanish  as  to  the  great  number  of  Spaniards  who  are  now  study- 
ing English. 

To  accomplish  this  purpose,  a  radical  departure  has  been 
made  from  the  practice  adopted  in  many  dictionaries  of  giving 
long  explanations  in  English  of  the  meaning  of  a  Spanish  word, 
instead  of  supplying  the  student  with  the  English  equivalents. 
A  bilingual  dictionary,  like  a  good  rule,  should  work  both  ways, 
and  to  do  this  it  should  give  equivalents  rather  than  definitions. 


IV  PKEF^CE 


Numberless  examples  might  be  cited  here  to  show  the  labori- 
ous task  implied  in  the  search  for  correct  equivalents,  especially 
as  regards  technical  terms,  many  of  which  are  either  omitted  or 
erroneously  translated  in  other  dictionaries. 

All  the  dictionaries  of  the  Spanish  and  English  languages, 
and  especially  those  by  Velazquez,  Gray  and  Iribas,  Lopes  and 
Bensley,  Ponce  de  Leon,  Bustamante,  Tolhausen,  Wellesley  and 
Girones,  have  been  frequently  consulted  and  compared  in  the 
course  of  compilation,  and  acknowledgment  is  hereby  made  for 
valuable  suggestions  found  in  them. 

Many  new  features,  however,  and  thousands  of  words  and  ac- 
ceptations not  found  in  any  similar  work,  have  been  introduced 
here,  as  any  one  may  verify  by  careful  comparison  of  a  single 
page  of  this  book  with  the  corresponding  page  in  any  other  dic- 
tionary. As  illustrative  examples  of  the  exhaustiveness  of  this 
compilation,  the  reader  is  referred  to  such  words  as  a,  de,  con, 
por,  que,  le,  se,  nos,  ese,  uno ;  dar,  hacer,  coger,  estar,  correr, 
echar,  ser,  salir,  seguir,  poner,  tirar,  ver,  venir ;  Have,  medio, 
fuerza,  ropa,  tiro,  titulo,  viga,  vida. 

One  special  feature  will  no  doubt  commend  itself  to  students 
as  a  help  toward  the  proper  use  of  irregular  verbs.  The  funda- 
mental tenses  of  such  verbs,  from  which  other  modes  are  formed, 
are  given  with  each  infinitive,  as  well  as  the  literal  mutations 
that  some  regular  verbs  undergo  in  some  tenses. 

In  order  to  save  space  for  more  important  matter,  the  pro- 
nunciation usually  given  for  each  word  has  been  dispensed  with, 
except  in  a  few  cases  where  some  difficult  word  occurs ;  but  as 
the  Spanish  pronunciation  is  simple,  the  few  rules  given  in  the 
following  pages,  explanatory  of  a  comprehensive  key  placed  at 
the  foot  of  each  page,  should  enable  the  student  to  pronounce 

any  word  correctly.

RULES  FOR  SPANISH  PRONUNCIATION 


Vowels 

The  Spanish  vowels  are  a,  e,  i,  o,  u,  and  occasionally  y. 
Each  vowel  has  one  invariable  sound. 

The  sound  of  a  is  full,  open,  as  in  far ^  father^  farm^  alarm. 

The  sound  of  e  is  an  intermediate  sound  between  long  a  in 
mate  and  short  e  in  met,,  as  in  eli !  weight. 

The  sound  of  i  is  the  same  as  in  police^  machine. 

The  sound  of  o  is  as  in  /or,  order^  lord,  form. 

The  sound  of  u  is  the  same  as  short  oo  in  wool,  or  u  in  bull, 
pull,  push. 

All  vowels  should  be  clearly  and  distinctly  sounded  in  all 
cases,  except  u  in  the  syllables  gue,  gui,  que,  qui,  when  it  is 
usually  silent.  When  sounded  in  gue,  gui,  it  is  marked  with  a 
dieresis,  thus  :  giie,  gili. 

CONSOl^rAN^TS 

B,  b,  has  a  softer  sound  than  in  English,  produced  by  joining 
the  lips,  without  pressure. 

C,  0,  before  a,  o,  u,  or  before  another  consonant,  has  the 
sound  of  the  English  k,  as  in  carro  (car),  costo  (cost),  cubo 
(cube),  close  (class),  crema  (cream),  acto  (act). 

C,  c,  before  e,  1,  has  the  sound  of  th  in  theft,  thin,  as  in 
Ciceron  (Cicero),  pronounced  thie-thay-ron'. 

Ch,  ch,  like  the  English  oh  in  cheese,  riches.  It  never  has 
the  sound  of  k,  nor  of  ch  in  machine. 

D,  d,  is  softer  than  in  English.  It  is  sounded  by  touching 
the  edge  of  the  upper  teeth  with  the  tip  of  the  tongue,  and  the 
sound  resembles  that  of  th  in  this,  that. 

F,  ff  the  same  as  in  English. 

G,  g,  before  a,  o,  u,  or  before  a  consonant,  has  the  sound  of 
English  g,  as  in  gas  (gas),  goma  (gum),  guano  (guano),  gloria 
Iglory),  gracia  (grace),  ignorante  (ignorant),  etc. 


VI  EULES  FOE  SPANISH  PEONUNCIATION 

Before  e,  i,  it  has  a  harsh  aspirate  sound,  as  that  of  English 
h  in  hey,  he ;  as  geologia  (geology),  pronounced  hey-o-lo-he'-a. 

H,  h,  is  always  silent. 

J,  j,  has  the  harsh  aspirate  sound  of  English  h  in  hat,  hot, 
hood:  same  as  Spanish  g  before  e,  i. 

K,  k,  as  in  English. 

L,  1,  as  in  English. 

U,  11,  is  a  Spanish  digraph,  and  sounds  always  like  the  Eng- 
lish 11  in  million,  brilliant. 

M,  m,  as  in  English. 

N,  n,  as  in  English. 

N,  n,  like  ny  in  caiiyon^  ronyon. 

P,  p,  as  in  English. 

d,  q,  as  in  English. 

E,  r,  between  two  vowels  has  the  sound  of  English  r  in 
caramel.  When  it  begins  a  word,  or  is  preceded  by  1,  n,  s,  or 
when  doubled,  rr,  it  has  a  rolling  or  trilling  sound,  produced  by 
vibrating  the  tip  of  the  tongue  by  a  strong  expulsion  of  breath. 

S,  s,  has  the  sound  of  English  s  in  sassafras,  and  no  other. 

T,  t,  differs  from  the  English  sound  of  t  in  that  it  is  sounded 
by  placing  the  tip  of  the  tongue  between  the  teeth. 

V,  V,  as  in  English. 

X,  X,  sounds  as  ks  or  gs,  never  as  sh.  In  some  old  Spanish 
words  it  is  pronounced  as  Spanish  j  (aspirate  h),  as  Mexico, 
pronounced  May'-he-co. 

Y,  y,  when  a  consonant,  sounds  as  in  the  English  word  year, 
young.  When  it  stands  alone  as  a  conjunction  (meaning  and), 
or  is  at  the  end  of  a  word,  it  is  a  vowel,  and  has  the  sound  of 
Spanish  i  (English  long  e). 

Z,  z,  has  the  sound  of  th  in  thick,  thatch,  thought :  same  as 
Spanish  c  before  e,  i. 

The  Key  to  Peonunciation 

In  a  line  at  the  foot  of  each  page  will  be  found  a  key  giving 
the  sounds  of  letters  in  Spanish  that  differ  most  from  the  equiv- 
alent English  letters.  Those  who  make  themselves  thoroughly 
conversant  with  the  simple  rules  given  above  will  find  little 
difficulty  in  pronouncing  Spanish  words.  When  a  word  occurs 
that  is  not  covered  by  the  Key,  the  pronunciation  is  given  in 
brackets. 


RULES  FOE  SPANISH   PRONUNCIATION  Vll 


EuLES  FOR  Spanish  Accentuation 

1.  Place  the  inflection  on  every  vowel  that  has  the  graphic 
accent ;  e.  g.,  cantara,  cantara,  haul,  corazon,  alegria,  esdrujulo, 
pagaselo,  castiguesemele. 

2.  On  words  not  accented,  ending  with  a  vowel,  or  with  an  n 
or  s,  place  the  inflection  on  the  penultimate  syllable ;  e.  g.,  can- 
tara, cataclismo,  ordinario,  caramelos,  contradicen  (accent  thus : 
•janta'ra,  cataclis'mo,  ordina'rio,  carame'los,  contradi'cen). 

3.  On  words  not  accented,  ending  with  a  consonant  (except 
a  or  s),  plav^e  the  inflection  on  the  last  syllable;  e.  g.,  principal, 
contemplad,  conocer,  albornoz,  occiput  (accent  thus :  principal', 
contemplad',  conocer',  albornoz',  occiput'). 

Irregular  Verbs 

The  fundamental  modes  of  irregular  verbs  are  given  with 
each  infinitive,  and  likewise  the  mutations  of  letters  occurring 
in  some  regular  verbs — a  feature  not  heretofore  presented  in 
any  dictionary  of  the  Spanish  language.

PREFACIO 


Los  prodigiosos  descubrimientos  e  invenciones  que  marcan  el 
progreso  realizado  de  medio  siglo  a  esta  parte  en  todos  los  ramos 
de  la  actividad  humana,  y  sus  multiples  aplicaciones  a  los  usos  de 
la  vida  han  enriquecido  de  tal  modo  el  vocabulario  de  las  leuguas 
modernas,  y  muy  particularmente  de  la  inglesa,  que  cada  dia  se 
hace  sentir  mas  la  necesidad  de  un  diccionario  que  responda  a  las 
exigencias  del  creciente  interoambio  de  ideas  y  productos  entre 
los  pueblos  de  la  raza  anglo-sajona  y  los  que  hablan  la  armoniosa 
lengua  castellana. 

A  mediados  del  siglo  XIX  vi6  la  luz  el  diccionario  bilingiie  de 
Velazquez,  basado  sobre  el  antiguo  de  Seoane,  Neuman  y  Baretti, 
y  aumentado  con  multitud  de  vocablos  que  lo  ponian  a  la  altura 
de  aquella  epoca. 

Cuantos  diccionarios  se  han  publicado  posteriormente,  tanto 
en  Europa  como  en  America,  han  sido  moras  copias  del  famoso 
lexico  de  Velazquez,  6,  a  lo  sumo,  revisiones  mas  6  menos  concien- 
zudas,  con  aditamento  de  algunas  palabras  modernas.  Pero,  por 
muy  meritorias  que  sean  algunas  de  esas  revisiones,  resultan  defi- 
cientes  en  la  practica  para  los  que  tienen  ocasion  de  consultar  con 
frecuencia  el  diccionario. 

Esa  experiencia  ha  evidenciado  la  necesidad  de  compilar  un 
diccionario  bilingiie  enteramente  nuevo,  trazado  sobre  un  patron 
mas  moderno  y  mas  exacto  que  el  que  ha  servido  para  los  publi- 
cados  hasta  hoy  dia. 

El  proposito  a  que  se  ha  ajustado  la  presente  obra  ha  sido  reu- 
nir  en  un  volumen  manuable  el  mds  nutrido,  complete  y  correct© 
vocabulario  de  los  idiomas  ingles  y  espaflol  que  pueda  hallarse  en 
un  diccionario  bilingiie,  descartando  un  sinnumero  de  arcaismos, 
vocablos  desusados,  provincialismos  y  palabras  de  incorrecta  orto- 
grafia  de  que  suelen  estar  plagados  otros  diccionarios  y  que  s6lo 
contribuyen  a  engrosar  su  tamafio. 

Con  este  fin,  y  para  que  el  diccionario  resulte  enteramente 
nuevo  y  contenga  los  mas  recientes  y  autorizados  neologismos  de 
uno  y  otro  idioma,  el  autor  ha  adoptado  como  base  y  punto  de 
partida  para  la  Parte  espafiola-inglesa,  la  reciente  edici6n   del 


IV  PKEFACIO 

Diccionario  de  la  Academia,  transcribiendo  palabra  por  palabii* 
cuantos  vocablos  contiene  aquel  16xico,  asi  como  todos  los  mas 
usuales  modismos,  con  la  sola  excepcion  de  las  voces  anticuadas 
y  de  las  que  ban  caldo  totalmente  en  desuso,  y  anotando  los 
equivalentes  ingleses  de  las  diversas  acepciones  de  cada  palabra. 
Igual  procedimiento  se  ha  seguido  para  la  Parte  inglesa-espaflola, 
sirviendo  de  base  el  admirable  Standard  Dictionary^  tambien  de 
reciente  publicacion,  cuyos  vocablos,  acepciones  y  modismos  se 
ban  transcrito  con  sus  equivalencias  castellanas. 

El  convencimiento  de  que  el  oficio  y  la  verdadera  utilidad  de 
todo  diccionario  bilingiie  consisten  en  dar  equivalencias  en  lugar 
de  definiciones  que  en  nada  auxilian  al  traductor  y  que  este 
puede  buscar  en  el  diccionario  de  su  propio  idioma,  ha  hecho 
necesaria  una  cuidadosa  y  ardua  labor  de  investigaci6n  para  hallar 
los  equivalentes  exactos  en  una  y  otra  lengua,  especialmente  de 
las  voces  de  tecnologia  cientifica  y  de  los  tecnicismos  mercantilcF 
6  industriales  que  en  gran  numero  se  ban  incluido  en  esta  obra, 
por  considerarlos  de  suma  utilidad  dado  el  creciente  desarrollo 
de  las  relaciones  entre  los  Estados  Unidos  y  los  paises  hispano- 
americanos. 

Para  tener  una  idea  de  lo  nutrida  que  va  esta  obra  en  punto  a 
tecnicismos,  bastard  cote  jar  las  voces  cuyas  raices  son  electr-^ 
hydr-,  micro-,  photo-^  con  las  de  otros  diccionarios  bilingiies,  sin 
contar  los  innumerables  terminos  que  figuran  entre  las  acepciones 
de  mucbos  vocablos  y  cuyo  caracter  t^cnico  se  indica  por  medio 
de  una  abreviatura  entre  parentesis,  lo  cual,  sobre  economizar 
espacio  y  bacer  inutiles  otras  explicaciones,  es  de  gran  auxilio 
para  el  traductor. 

En  otro  punto  esencial  difiere  esta  obra  de  todos  los  diccio- 
narios bilingiies  publicados  hasta  la  fecha,  y  es  en  el  sisteina  de 
anotacion  fonetica  adoptado  para  representar  la  pronunciacion 
inglesa.  Tras  un  estudio  detenido  de  este  important!  si  mo  punto 
y  despues  de  examinar  cuidadosamente  los  sistemas  ad  op  tad  os 
en  otros  diccionarios,  el  autor  ha  formulado  uno  enteramente 
nuevo  que  se  expone  a  continuaci6n,  en  el  cual  ha  procurado  sim- 
plificar  las  dificultades  que  presenta  la  pronunciacion  inglesa, 
reduciendolas  a  una  clave  breve,  eencilla  y  de  facil  aplicacion. 

Multuni  in  parvo  ha  sido  el  ideal  que  ha  perseguido  el  autor 
en  la  compilacion  de  esta  obra,  y  al  logro  de  este  empefio  ban 
coadyuvado  eficazmente  los  editores  produciendo  un  libro  que 
contiene,  en  forma  compacta  y  de  esmerada  tipografia,  mayor 
suma  de  informaci6n  que  otros  voluminosos  diccionarios.

PE0NUNCIACI(5N  inglesa 


El  alfabeto  ingles  consta  de  26  letras,  de  las  cuales  cinco  son 
vocales,  veinte  consonantes  y  una, — la  y, — lo  mismo  que  en  cas- 
tellano,  puede  hacer  ambos  oficios. 

Pero  asi  como  el  alfabeto  espanol  tiene  28  letras  para  expresar 
los  25  sonidos  que  constituyen  la  fonetica  del  idioma,  no  bastan 
las  26  letras  del  alfabeto  ingles  para  representar  los  numerosos 
sonidos  que  se  emplean  en  la  revesada  pronunciacion  de  esa 
lengua.  M  siquiera  estan  acordes  los  filologos  ingleses  respecto 
del  numero  de  sonidos  de  su  fonetica,  pues  mientras  la  Asociacion 
Filologica  Americana  limita  a  32  los  sonidos  f  undamentales,  hay 
gramaticos  que  reconocen  43  sonidos  distintos  (Richard  Morris 
en  Historical  Outlines  of  English  Accidence^  pp.  61,  62),  y  otros 
los  hacen  ascender  a  46  (Evan  Daniel  en  The  Grammar^  History 
and  Derivation  of  the  English  Language^  p.  290).  La  segunda  cifra 
parece  ser  la  mas  aproximada,  puesto  que  solamente  a  las  vocales 
hay  que  asignar  19  sonidos  diferentes,  quedando  24  para  las  con- 
sonantes, sin  contar  el  de  la  ^,  5'  y  a;  que  lo  tienen  repetido. 

No  tan  solo  respecto  de  los  sonidos  fundamentales,  sino  hasta 
en  la  pronunciacion  de  numerosas  palabras  estan  en  completo 
desacuerdo  filologos  y  lexicografos  ingleses  de  reconocida  autori- 
dad,  puesto  que  no  hay  reglas  generales  que  determinen  la  recta 
pronunciacion  de  los  vocablos ;  dandose  el  caso  de  que  algunos  de 
ellos, — como  por  ejemplo  caricature,  exemplary,  exptirgator,  fa- 
miliarity, cynosure,  capillary,  euthanasia,  etc. — pueden  pronun- 
ciarse  de  diez  6  doce  modos  distintos,  segun  el  diverso  parecer  de 
los  peritos.  ( V.  Standard  Dictionary,  Disputed  Pronuncia- 
tions, pp.  2287-2308.) 

Son  tantas  las  dificultades  prosodicas  que  presenta  el  idioma, 
que  los  lexicografos  ingleses  se  ven  en  la  necesidad  de  representai 
en  los  diccionarios  de  la  lengua,  por  medio  de  una  clave  fonetica, 
la  correcta  pronunciacion  de  cada  vocablo.  Pero  tampoco  en  estc 
punto  de  la  representacion  ortologica  por  medio  de  "  fonemas  "  6 
signos  convencionales  se  encuentra  concordancia  en  los  dicciona-. 
rios  de  pronunciacion.  Basta  leer  en  el  prefacio  de  los  grandes 
lexicos, — como  el  monumental  del  Dr.  Murray  que  se  publica  en 
Oxford,  y  los  de  Webster,  Century  y  Standard  publicados  en  los 
Estados  Unidos, — la  parte  que  dedican  k  explanar  el  sistema  que 
en  cada  uno  de  ellos  se  ha  adoptado  para  representar  fon^tica- 
mente  la  pronunciacion,  para  comprender  las  dificultades  que 
ofrece  la  representacion  exacts  por  medio  de  signos  graficos  de 


VI  PRONUNCIACIOK  INGLESA 


los  43  sonidos  distintos  que  componen  la  fonetica  del  idioma.  Y 
si  esto  es  asi  tratandose  de  diccionarios  destinad()s  a  personas 
para  quienes  el  ingles  es  idioma  vernaculo,  <:  que  no  sera  cuando 
se  intente  dar  a  conocer  por  modo  grafico  esos  sonidos  a  personas 
de  habla  distinta,  para  las  cuales  muchos  de  ellos  son  totalmente 
desconocidos  y  de  dificil  pronunciacion  ? 

En  la  imposibilidad,  pues,  de  representar  de  un  modo  fiel  y 
exacto  y  al  mismo  tiempo  de  f acil  comprension,  todas  las  diversas 
y  finisimas  graduaciones  de  los  sonidos  vocales  y  de  algunas  ar- 
ticulaciones  consonantes  del  idioma  ingles,  creemos  preferible 
evitar  la  confusi6n  que  pudiera  producir  una  clave  complicada,  y 
nos  limitaremos  d  dar  una  representacion  aproximada  de  la  pro- 
nunciacion de  cada  vocahlo^  tal  como  se  leeria  en  castellano,  valien- 
donos  para  ello  de  las  letras  de  nuestro  alfabeto  que  mejor  la  in- 
diquen,  excepto  para  unos  cuantos  sonidos  extraflos  a  nuestra 
lengua  que  sera  preciso  representar  con  caracteres  especiales. 
Con  ese  fin  presentamos  k  continuacion  una  sencillisima  clave 
fonetica,  cuyo  uso  no  puede  ofrecer  la  menor  dificultad  despues 
de  leer  las  explicaciones  que  la  acompafian.  La  comparacion  que 
en  ellas  se  hace  de  ciertos  sonidos  ingleses  con  otros  similares  del 
frances,  aleman,  italiano  y  Catalan,  podra  servir  a  los  que  viven 
en  paises  donde  no  se  habla  el  ingles  para  consultar  a  las  personas 
que  conozcan  alguno  de  los  citados  idiomas  y  oir  de  yiva  voa 
dichos  sonidos,  unico  modo  de  aprenderlos  correctamente.

pleasure,  leisure ;  evasion,  illusion,  corrosion ;  a^^ure,  seis^ure, 

etc.,  estas  consonantes  tienen  un  sonido  parecido  al  descrito  en  el 
§  3  (sh),  pero  mucho  mas  suave.  Es  un  sonido  igual  al  que  tiene  la  g 
antes  de  e,  i  6  bien  la  /  en  frances  (geant,  college,  Jean,  Joseph),  6  en 
italiano  {Giovanni,  Giuseppe,  Gerardo),  6  en  Catalan  (gegant,  col-legi^ 
Joan,  Josep)  y  se  produce  arqueando  la  lengua  casi  hasta  tocar  el  cielo

Esta  combinacion  tiene  dos  sonidos :  uno  suave  y  otro  fuerte. 

§  6.  El  sonido  suave,  que  tiene  en  voeablos  como  the^  thi»,  thai, 
f/tem,  es  mucho  mas  suave  que  la  d  castellana,  y  se  pronuncia  tocando 
suavemente  con  la  lengua  el  borde  de  los  dientes  superiores ;  por  con- 
siguiente lo  representaremos  con  la  letra  mayiiscula     .        .        .        .        D 

§  7.  El  sonido  fuerte,  que  tiene  en  voeablos  como  thick,  thro&t, 
theatre,  truth,  es  igual  al  de  la  z  castellana  que  se  pronuncia  no 
como  una  s,  sino  como  en  Castilla  colocando  la  punta  de  la  lengua 
entre  los  dos  hileras  de  los  dientes,  y  este  sonido,  para  que  no  lo  equi- 
voquen  los  hispano-americanos  con  la  s,  lo  representaremos  con  z  bas- 
tardilla z 

Si  el  consultor  de  este  diccionario  procura  retener  en  la  memoria  el  sonido 
que  corresponde  a  cada  uno  de  los  siete  signos  indicados,  no  tendra  la  menor 
dificultad  en  pronunciar  las  palabras  inglesas,  leyendo  como  si  fuera  en 
castellano  la  representacion  fonetica  que  acompafLa  d  cada  vocablo  y  cuidando 
de  cargar  la  inflexion  de  voz  en  la  vocal  marcada  con  acento. 

Los  sonidos  de  los  numerosos  diptongos  y  de  las  vocales  y  consonantes  in- 
glesas no  expresados  arriba,  se  representaran  aproximadamente  como  suenan 
en  castellano. 

En  resumen :  la  correcta  pronunciacion  del  ingles  solo  puede  aprenderse  do 
viva  voz;  por  muy  detallada  y  comprensiva  que  sea  una  clave  fonetica,  el 
estudiante  que  no  tenga  otro  medio  para  aprender  los  sonidos,  solo  llegara  a 
adquirir  una  pronunciacion  aproximada  e  imperfecta ;  cuanto  mas  sencilla  y 
clara  sea  dicha  clave,  mas  se  le  facilitara  el  estudio  de  la  pronunciacion  en  los 
prineipios,  y  despues,  cuando  este  mds  avanzado  en  el  conocimiento  del  idioma, 
podra  con  mas  provecho  perfeccionar  su  pronunciacion  consultando  lexicos 
mgleses  como  el  Webster,  Standard  6  Century.

ADVEETENCIA 


PARA  LA  MEJOR  COMPRENSI6N  DE  ALGUNOS  SIGNOS  USADOS 
EN  ESTE  LIBRO 

La  tendencia  a  simplificar  la  ortografia  hace  que  en  los  Estados  Unidos  se 
elimine  alguna  letra  innecesaria  en  ciertas  palabras  como  clamor,  honor^ 
labor,  que  en  Inglaterra  continuan  escribiendose  en  su  integridad  (clamour, 
honour,  labour).  Estas  y  otras  supresiones  parecidas,  autorizadas  por  el  uso 
y  por  los  lexicografos,  se  indican  cerrando  con  un  parentesis  la  letra  que  suele 
6  puede  suprimirse,  v.  gr. :  clamo(u)r,  hono(u)r,  labo(u)r,  jewel(l)er,  jewel- 
(le)ry,  judg(e)ment,  rat(t)an,  gast(e)ropod. 

Asimismo,  para  economizar  espacio,  se  marcan  con  un  parentesis  algunos 
substantives  y  los  numerosos  adjetivos  que  tienen  dos  terminaciones,  v.  gr. ; 
gelatin(e,  presage(ment,  knnr(l,  kurd(isli,  labiate(d,  grammatic(aly 
comic(al,  que  pueden  escribirse  integramente  6  bien  gelatin,  presage,  knur, 
kurd,  labiate,  grammatic,  comic. 

En  la  representacion  fonetica  de  los  vocablos  que  tienen  dos  terminaciones 
6  de  aquellos  que  pueden  pronunciarse  de  dos  maneras  distintas,  se  suprimen 
las  silabas  identicas  que  ya  sabra  suplir  el  buen  sentido  del  lector,  v.  gr :  pre- 
eursive,  precursory  [precdersiv,  sori],  proniinciese  [preccfersiv,  precdersori] ; 
predecessor  [pre-  6  (pri-)  desesoer],  quiere  decir  que  esa  palabra  puede  pronun- 
ciarse [predesescer  6  pridesesoer] ;  predominance,  predominancy  [predomi- 
nans,  i],  quiere  decir  que  la  primera  se  pronuncia  [predominans]  y  la  segunda 
[predominansi]. 

Los  vocablos  que  no  van  acompanados  de  representacion  fonetica,  como 
lord,  mar,  mark,  nest,  park,  part,  pass,  rich,  rip,  etc.,  se  pronuncian  en 
ingles  aproximadamente  como  se  leen  en  castellano.
